2020 Holiday

12 May 2020

Due to the corona virus crisis, the 2020 Holiday was cancelled by HF holidays.

Plans for WGWG holidays in future years are in abeyance until it is clearer how the crisis and Government restrictions on travel become clearer. This will also be affected for walking holidays outside the UK by the virus situation on other European countries and the availability of travel insurance.

Wilmslow Guild Walking Group Committee

2023 Holiday

Bob Swinburne, the Committee member with overview of possible WGWG holidays, has spent a lot of time trying to find a Eurpoean HF Holiday for 2023 with flights from Manchester and some rooms for single booking.

The decision is as follows:

Despite Bob's efforts single rooms remain in short supply.
